Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Concentrated Ethanol Extracts of Edelweiss (Leontopodium alpinum Cass.) Callus Cultures towards Human Keratinocytes and Endothelial Cells
Figure 5
Effects of concentrated ethanol extract of Edelweiss callus cultures (ECC55) and reference anti-inflammatory plant polyphenols on inflammatory gene expression in human vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) challenged with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Abbreviations: Qr = quercetin, 25 μg/mL; Rv = resveratrol, 25 μg/mL; IL-8 = interleukin 8; MCP-1 = monocyte chemotactic protein-1; IL-6 = interleukin 6; TNFα = tumor necrosis factor alpha; VCAM1 = vascular cellular adhesion molecule-1; ICAM1 = intercellular adhesion molecule-1; COX2 = cyclooxygenase 2. Error bars in all figures correspond to S.D. *P < 0.01 versus untreated control; §P < 0.01 versus LPS-treated keratinocytes.
